Umno setting the stage for Muhyiddin’s fall, say analysts - superadmin - 07-13-2021 PETALING JAYA: Prime Minister Muhyiddin Yassin is likely to cling on to power unless there is pressure from within his Cabinet for him to step down, said analysts. Academician Azmi Hassan said Umno’s strategy is to continuously attack Muhyiddin for failing to manage the country during the health and economic crisis. “They are hoping that when the prime minister falls, the position will go to the No. 2, that is Umno’s Ismail Sabri Yaakob,” he said, referring to Ismail’s recent appointment as deputy prime minister in Muhyiddin’s government. Azmi also said Ismail had made several public announcements since his appointment on July 9, a move seen to raise his visibility. - More -
